Vehicle Paperwork For International Travel

[Javabear]

Mods, please move to the appropriate forum if neccesary.

I've gotten my Thai drivers licenses, my international license, and my US license. I've got a car and a motorcycle in my wife's name. I want to get the motorcycle into my name for runs to Cambodia or wherever else I feel like going. Does anyone know the process for this and what documentation is needed? I already have the residency certificate from immigration.

I would also need to know what documentation is needed to get the motorcycle across the borders and back. I've heard of something called a vehicle passport but I have no idea of how to go about getting one.

Thanks to all in advance!

Hmmm....Yes, I think another forum is best. Why don't we try the bikes in Thailand forum? OK?

Topic Moved.

I think this topic shouldn't be moved to motorbike because it concern a general topic for all vehicules.

Important is, you register your vehicule at your name.

After you go to the office for Land and Transport and ask for an ITP (International Transport Passport - the violet book).

They translate you motorbike or care datas into English on a additional A4 paper and deliver you a small violet booklet.

With this you can travel to all neighbour countries. The first proceeder takes maybe 30 minutes on the border, if you come back for a next trip just few minutes because all datas stay registred in the computer of custom and easy can beprinted out the forms you need for the neighbour country. Fees depend on your office, I paid at all in Prachuap Khiri Khan near 400 Bath. Each year you have to renew the ITP but cost less.
